Joey's P.O.V.

He ran to me just as I slit my left wrist. This is what he gets. The bastard won't sit and listen to my side of the damn story! I screamed in both pain and pleasure. The guys cam running just as Jinxx was putting his hands on it to stop the bleeding. All of them wore shocked faces. "Get a towel! Now!" Jinxx ordered someone. Ash was the first to move. He ran to the drawer and got a white towel and ran over to us and shoved Jinxx out of the way. He wrapped it around my wrist tight. "What the fuck did you do to her!" I started to sway a little from the loss of blood. "I didn't do a damn thing!" Jinxx yelled back. "Uh... Guys Joey needs medical attention!" Jake screamed at the top of his lungs-litterally- to get Jinxx's and Ash's attention.

Then he ran over and picked me up and ran out of the building. Leaving everyone else in the dust. He ran all the way to the nearist hospital. "Help! Someone help! My friend needs help now!!" He screamed and out of breath. Then it went black. It felt like I was out for days. I woke in a totally white room with them standing there. Ash in the chair by my bed with Jake at his side. I looked around and found Andy, and CC standing around and at the foot of my bed.

"Hey, she's awake!" Jake cheered.

"Keep it down Jake. You'll scare her." Ash said.

"Me? Scare Joey? N'aw I'll never do that to the poor thing."

"I'm sure you won't." Awww Ash was supporting me and defending me at the same time!! He's so cute!!

I smiled sigingling that I was awake and happy to see them. I tilted my head to see Ash and he smiled back at me. I started to speak, "Ash... I'm so sor-" he cut me off, "Don't be sorry Joey. I know it wasn't your fault. Jinxx told me everything after I tried not to kill him." That last part made me laugh. Then I looked for Jinxx. I can't find him anywhere!

"Where is he?"

"Oh, he left last night. He'll be back soon." CC said with pure happiness in his voice and didn't try to hide.

"Oh, okay. How soon?" I really need to make up for last night. Or whenever it happened.

"Why? He'll be back. He always comes back."

"He left to get some sleep. It was a long night." Andy said. He and CC was on the side of my bed.

"Is music playing?" I couldn't quite make out what it was because it's so soft.

"Yeah. That one band. With the girl singer. Jinxx brought it in along with the stero. He said something about you liking them a lot." Jake said.

"Oh. You mean Icon For Hire. I can barely hear it. Turn it up."

Ashley's perspective.

She's back to her old self again. I got up and turned up the stero more. A song I don't rconize. Then there was a cd next to it. "What band is this?" I asked since I didn't even know how to say the damn name. "Oh! He brought it. They're Evanescence. Put it in! Put it in!" She commanded. Evanescence. I sat back next to her. The second song. I liked it suprisengley a lot. "What's the name of that second one?" Then the doctor comes in. "Ah, Mrs. Purdy glad to see you awake. I am your doctor, Mr. Singer." We looked at eachother questionagly for a moment. "You must be her husband?" Husband? Like hell.

"Father. Call me Ashley or Ash."

"Oh my apologies. So she's your daughter? Very well, she's doing great. But.. I'm afraid I have to ask a few questions."

"Absuletly."

"Great. May we speak outside?"

Okay, what's this guys deal? Anything he can ask, he can do it with her in the room. "Sure."

"Has she attempted suciside before?"

"Why is it your concern? I'm taking perfect care of her."

"Yes, I see that. You're doing a wonderful job. It's our concern because, she may be trying to commit suicide. Teen suicide is on the rise and we want to make sure that she's not under too much stress. Teens are under a lot of presure these days and with school and home troubles, it can lead to suciside."

"She's tried twice already. Are you calling me a bad parent? If so, I'm taking her home now."

"No, no. It's not about your parenting skills. We'd like to put her under suicide watch for a couple weeks, if that's alright with you?"

"Yeah, I guess. Why, is something wrong her?"

"That's what we're trying to find out."

"What do I have do?"

"Just be with her. Someone has to be with her at all times. Someone she knows or trusts. Like a friend or realitive."

"We're going on tour in 2 days. That's going to be hard. But we can figure something out."

"Great. We'd like to install a few camaras in the home. So that she's being martinared at all times, even if she's alone."

"Damn. Extreme much? Anything to keep her safe and from trying to kill herself."

"Just one in the living room and her bedroom."

"Like hell. No camaras in her room. It's hers. I'm not taking that away from her."

"That's fine. We need at least one camera in the home."

"One will do just fine."

"Perfect. She will be realesed first thing in the morning."

"Awsome." We shook hands and he left. A few questions my ass. That was like 20 questions. At least. I go back in her room and she's gone. Damn! I can't catch a break! "Joey! Where the hell are you!" And she pops out. "Why all the yelling? I can't go to bathroom in peace?" Ugh... I need a drink. "Oh. I just thought... You... Disappered." She pulls a half smile, "No, I didn't disappear. You need to calm down." She had a point. "Joey!!" Now what? "Jinxx!!" She screamed in my ear. Jinxx picks her up in a bear hug. "It's about damn time you showed up!" She said. "I know. I went home last night to get some sleep. Then Sammi got a hold of me again." He hugged her once more then put her down.
